National Day Of Remembrance For Victims Of Slavery (No. 2)

EDM number 2337 in 2005-06, proposed by Dawn Butler on 08/06/2006.

That this House acknowledges the atrocities suffered by Afrikan-Caribbeans as a consequence of the crime against humanity that was the slave trade; and calls on the Government to ensure that 2007, the 200th year since the abolition of the slave trade, sees the formation of a Government-funded annual UK slavery memorial day, which should be held on 25th March each year to mark the date in 1807 when the slave trade became illegal.

This motion has been signed by a total of 62 MPs.
